Device Alerts via SMS or SMTP
With text messaging availability on Cells being carried by the vast majority
in the IT field, this is the most stable alert mechanism in use during a
catastrophic systems failure that we offer.
Through the use of a straight POTS line connected to an inexpensive modem
and everything powered through a UPS - you can lose your power, lose your
generators, fry your network, but that good ol' POTS line tends to remain
active long enough to get out the critical notification.
IPSentry uses the standards based TAP protocol for modem transmission by
default. However, due to the diversity of messaging terminal requirements,
we have provided various customizable scripts to match many different
services and devices, including the use of devices such as USB attached GSM
device for sending SMS direct over-the-air.
Similar to standard Cell phone notification via SMS, you can incorporate
both SMTP and SMS/TAP notifications into the pager configuration providing
the best of both worlds.
If the email can't get through, the SMS dialup should be the fallback.
Again within the scope of paging - IPSentry uses the standards based TAP
protocol for modem transmission by default. However, due to the diversity of
messaging terminal requirements, we have provided various customizable
scripts to match many different services and devices, including the use of
devices such as USB attached GSM device for sending SMS direct over-the-air.
This alerting mechanism also support Numeric Beepers using standard DTMF
tones.
